I'm warning you...the flamers are going to come out and rain fire and disgust all over your thread. It's not just that they disagree, they'll be vile about Lucy. I see shades of it already. Careful.

Oh nooooooooo. Don't remind me. You're going to make me hate him again.

Miss Fallen Angel -- Fallen Angel The title of which has always made me ponder: Who is the angel that has fallen? Alice Faye? Linda Darnell? Dana Andrews? Good question. Here's my opinion: Alice Faye is the one who would qualify as an "angel," but has she fallen? Yes. She's fallen for Dana Andrews. Uh-huh, angels can fall, especially in the wonderful world of film noir. Frank, don't fools rush in where angels fear to tread?? And don't we like to see nice virginal girls fall...fall...fall?

Yes ma'am...you're right. I was just questioning (slightly) the movie conceit of picking up hoboes (Nick Nolte-Bette Midler-Richard Dreyfuss) or girls/boys on the bench ("Come Live With Me") or convicted (albeit innocent) felons ("Dark Passage"). It just makes me say "only in the movies!" But with that being said...I still love the film and Agnes Moorhead. Message was edited by: CineMaven

Make sure you get those things onto a DVD for posterity.

Hmmm...I just don't know if that's a good thing for a girl.

"Watson, the needle." Sherlock Holmes to Dr. Watson in 1939's "The Hounds of the Baskerville."

4Ever...what particular forum would that be under? Or is it a trick like Metz did in "My Favorite Gal"??

Do like Metsfan does...focus on Hedy Lamarr.

Oooh, I just left something on Robert Ryan. Darn it...I forgot where it was. Nice research about him. Please look around. It's here.

Pidgeon was quite debonair-looking; and what a great voice he had.

Nuthin' better to do Metzie???

Father of actress Jennifer Jason Leigh. What a horrific death. Sheesh!

Butterscotch...the Esther Williams films I've enjoyed were "Easy To Wed" "Bathing Beauty" "Neptune's Daughter" "The Unguarded Moment" and liked seeing her work in an Andy Hardy film ("...Double Life.") Gosh she was pretty. Baby it's c-c-cold outside.

Quite a lot of work and research you put in there MissGoddess. I'm a big fan of Robert Ryan after getting over my fear of him. He looked so intimidating. But when I saw him in "Tender Comrade" he won my heart over. Now I love him, mean and surly or reluctantly romantic. Thanxxx for the info.

I thought I read that Vance and Frawley didn't really get along that well. I had a "ball" watching that show. A classic. Now we have "Two & A Half Men" with old vaudeville humor that even George Burns wouldn't use. How times have changed. (All time favorite show was "Burns and Allen.")

* the worst thing that ever happened to Hitchcock's careeer * It foms a clear line of demarcation between the career that spanned, say, THE 39 STEPS... * and Hitchcock was, it seems, all too willing to please the "suits" at Universal by running with the label and cheapening his output. Cinesage: * You mis-spelled the word 'career.' * You mis-spelled the word 'form.' * You didn't capitalize the 'A' in the word and.* You use run-on sentences in your effort to rush to get all your thoughts out there to us. Hey, this spell checking thing is fun. Say...what's this thread about anyway?

Oh boy oh boy oh boy...let me jump on this: HITCH! HITCH! HITCH! HITCH! Bardot or Loren??

What a classy lady.

You're on the wrong Message Board.

You posted pix of Lana w/Hedy and Lana w/Eve Arden that peaked my interest (in a salacious kind of way). Thanxxxx. But how about something for the distaff side. Can we girls drool at some eye-candy?? Can we get some Victor Mature or Robert Taylor or some Rory Calhoun or some Tab Hunter or some Rock Hudson; you know what I mean...beefcake. Of course not on Lana's thread though I think she loved the beefcake too. Just askin'. Message was edited by: CineMaven

That wig was absolutely horrible on him. But he was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo mesmerizing in that film that...

I saw him in a play in NY years ago ("Butley"). Didn't notice the colour; just that he was GORGEOUS. I've read that Oliver Reed had the coldest eyes in motion pictures.

Do you remember when Ricky pretended there was a fire in the house and Lucy was in the bedroom all bandaged out. She threw her henna out the window and tied herself to a blanket to ease out of the window??? When the other half of the blanket was NOT tied to the bed and the camera followed the loose blanket as it sped out the window was the funniest thing I've seen in my ENTIRE life. Some folks are just haters! Lucille Ball was great.

Thanxxx so much for the pictures MissGoddess. Coming out of the shadows through the mist of the green neon light just personifies Scottie's Obsession. And there's the bed right there... Gee.
